Bronchial perforation and bronchoesophageal fistulas: tuberculous origin in children
AJR Am J Roentgenol.
1980 Sep.
Abstract
A case of bronchial perforation and two cases of bronchoesophageal fistula of tuberculous oritin are presented. The lesions were radiologically identified by bronchography in one patient and esophagography in the other two. One patient with bronchoesophageal fistula died. His lesion had been erroneously considered to be congenital. At surgery, widespread pulmonary tuberculosis was found. The other two patients responded to antituberculous chemotherapy. In one of them, a follow-up barium esophagogram showed a large esophageal diverticulum located where a previous fistulous opening had closed.
